This document discusses screencasting as a tool for providing multimodal feedback. It begins with defining screencasting as a digital recording of computer screen output, often with audio narration. It then asks and answers several questions about screencasting, including where the author first heard about using it as a feedback tool, how it can be used, when it first worked effectively, and why it is an effective feedback method. The document provides examples of using screencasting for peer and group project feedback. It concludes by reflecting on how screencasting has revolutionized feedback and stating that capturing audio, video and screens for feedback can be transformational for teachers.
